Did you buy spam years back when it was the affordable alternative.....?!
Answers: and/or do you buy spam now when it's SO EXPENSIVE
my mum used to send me t'local shop for spam i hated it but we were so poor.there were eighteen of us living in rolled up newspaper at bottom of 'lake.we used to come 'ome and our dad would give us cup of freezing cold poison and dance on our graves and shout halleluya.eeh bu they were good times
No gross. Full of jelly gunge, yuk!
Used to ,Not any more.
I buy spam because I like it. We had it growing up. Mom made a breading of dry bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, oregano, salt and pepper. Slice the spam, dip it in beaten egg, then the breading and fry it in butter. It is delicious!!
used to buy it ,delicious sliced and fried in butter
I have never been a huge spam fan! It is just too weird for me.
No, even now I rather go with a vegetarian alternative, if meat is out of my pocket reach, rather than eat that horrible and unhealthy concoction.
love it in batter nice and fatty and dripping with grease..... who cares...............
I used to love American Spam, especially for camping. UK Spam is just disgusting.
My mom used to have that stuff at the house all the time when I was a kid. I used to love it fried, and on a sandwich with mayo, pickle and lettuce (it covers up the yucky jelly stuff it sits in in the can).
I bought it a few years ago so my girls could try it after we went to the Spam museum in Minnesota. They said they have no idea how I survived... lol
Needless to say, we don't buy it anymore
Yep-years ago it seemed to be the simple meat for the poor-these days it's changed-it's more expensive than a lot of the counterparts and costlier than real meat apparently!!!.
I don't get that-surely it's just scraps made into a block?.

Wasn't it introduced during WWII, when meat was in short supply, or you had to use rations to get it? I'll bet some of that original Spam is still on the shelves (along with 50-yr-old Twinkies)...... No...I've never bought it, and never will.....
i love the black pepper spam, i have allways eaten spam since i was a young kid..48 now
not a lover of battered spam, urghhhhhhhhh
Spam is disgusting! I haven't and won't eat it.
